目的:为了探索影响大学生创造力的因素,了解创新自我效能感对人格特质影响创造力的中介作用机制。方法:采用威廉斯创造力倾向问卷、大学生创新自我效能感问卷和艾森克人格简式问卷对广东、广西、甘肃、贵州的四所大学发放610份问卷并回收588份问卷调查,探索大学生人格特质、创新自我效能感和创造力的关系,对收集好的调查数据进行了回归分析和中介效应分析。结果:1) 通过多元线性回归分析发现神经质及任务效能、认知效能和能力效能对创造力及其三个维度都具有显著正向预测作用,创新自我效能感的三个维度对创造力及其三个维度的预测作用都不显著(r = 0.13~0.45, P < 0.001)。2) 对大学生的创新自我效能感对人格特质和创造力的影响作中介作用分析(Bootstrap values were 0.0397, and 95% confidence intervals were −0.109~0.497)。结论:大学生创新自我效能感在人格特质与创造力倾向中起部分中介作用。

Objective: To explore the factors affecting college students’ creativity, and to understand the me-diating mechanism of innovative self-efficacy on the influence of personality traits on creativity. Methods: 610 questionnaires were distributed to four universities in Guangdong, Guangxi, Gansu and Guizhou by Williams creativity Orientation questionnaire, college students’ innovative self- efficacy questionnaire and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire, and 588 questionnaires were collected to explore the relationship between college students’ personality traits, innovative self- efficacy and creativity. The regression analysis and mediation effect analysis were carried out on the collected survey data. Results: 1) Through multiple linear regression analysis, it was found that neuroticism, task efficacy, cognitive efficacy and competence efficacy had significant positive predictive effects on creativity and its three dimensions, while the three dimensions of innovative self-efficacy had no significant predictive effects on creativity and its three dimensions (r = 0.13~ 0.45, P < 0.001). 2) The mediating effects of creative self-efficacy on personality traits and creativity were analyzed (Bootstrap values were 0.0397, and 95% confidence intervals were 0.109~ 0.497). Conclusion: The creative self-efficacy of college students plays a partial mediating role in the relationship between personality traits and creative tendencies.
